Amazing aesthetic, picture and sound!!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve owned this television for 4 months and have enjoyed every minute I’ve spent in front of it. No problems at all. This television was purchased for use in a dedicated room where I enjoy games, movies and tv shows on Netflix and Amazon Prime that feature 4K HDR enhancements. I game on Xbox One X, PS4 Pro and Switch. Even though the Switch isn’t a 4K supported system it still looks amazing due to the design and color palettes that Nintendo applies to their first part library. No introduction needed on the visuals the other two systems can produce on this unit. Due to the true blacks an OLED tv can produce, the contrast between lights and blacks is virtually unlimited. This makes for an incredible 4K HDR gaming experience! Note: I do not use this television for continuous news or sports so as to keep the risk of burn-in very low. One other thing I would like to add. The overall design of this model is striking. Looks great when placed in a setting that has been tailor made to show it off. Thanks LG and Best Buy!

Hands down perfect TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV is the best tv i have ever bought and was definitely well worth every penny. The picture is sharp and crisp. The tv is the thinnest tv I’ve ever seen which I personally think is neat looking. The sound of the tv is great also. And to top it all off I can access Hulu and Netflix and you tube with out no problems but I have a ps4 anyway so I just use the ps4 for all of that but just needless to say I highly recommend this TV to anyone who’s in the market for a tv, you won’t be disappointed. Great job LG for making such a great TV!

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this tv in November of 2018 and the tv is still going strong best picture by far. I play video games on the tv no problems I also purchased the protection plan just Incase have never used the insurance but better to have a piece of mind if something goes wrong. Tvs usually have a 100,000 hour watch time so should last a long time.

Beautiful
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the most beautiful television picture I’ve ever owned in my 58 years. Reflections from your room such as lamps are minimal and viewing at an angle is excellent. I stream over an Apple 4K and upgraded my old router to a new Netgear Nighthawk AX4 and the performance is excellent. I had a Sony surround system with my old setup and didn’t bother with connecting it to this new OLED because the audio is more than adequate. I may upgrade to a Dolby Atmos soundbar later. If you’re in the market for a new TV, spend a little extra and get this OLED. It’s worth every penny!

Fantastic picture!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this tv! Looking at TVs last week to replace a 40 inch, we saw the OLED tv pictures vs led and decided the extra cost was worth it. The sound from this set is impressive for our small Den. We wont be using a sound bar anymore.

Best picture ever.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this TV knowing before I bought it that it was the one I wanted. Every time I passed it on display I had to stop and look t it in amazement. The picture was so crystal clear and sharp. This technology is the greatest. It also has a tremendous sound system in it that makes me feel like I don’t need a sound bar. I think if you buy this TV you definitely will not be disappointed.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionAnybody had the problem with burn in with the OLED
Asked by Hutch78.
- A:Answer Yes, I had a problem with a burn issue on my 55 in OLED tv. I like listening to the music channels and now I have a burn problem on my tv

Q: QuestionMost of my viewing is through verizon FIOS. Can anyone tell me if the 720 and 1080 shows look substantially better on this tv?
Asked by Dale.
- A:Answer Hi Dale. Every TV will play video content at its native resolution. The LG B8PUA 4K HDR Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ® - 55" Class (54.6" Diag), Model # OLED55B8PUA is a 10-bit panel and has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 (i.e. a native resolution of 2160p). When presented with video content that has a lower resolution, the built-in 4K Upscaler in the TV will upconvert those lower resolutions to its native resolution or as close as it can get it provided the signal has enough data. The resultant picture should be sharper, and more detailed than it would on a similarly-performing 1080p TV if you are sitting close enough, but there are many other factors that could affect that. 1080p and 720p content are never going to look as good as the best 4K content. It's just not possible...^IFV

Q: QuestionWhat is the native refresh rate?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer OLED's have a native 120 Hertz panel and have a refresh rate of as low as 0.001 ms which for reference is around 1,000 times faster than a standard LED/LCD panel. ^CP

Q: QuestionWith stand attached, what distance does tv frame set off of anyone’s stand? I have a sound bar that is 3.5” tall, want be able to use remotes with sound bar in front of tv. Thanks.
Asked by Chris.
- A:Answer The gap between the bottom of the panel on the LG B8PUA 4K HDR Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ® - 55" Class (54.6" Diag), Model # OLED55B8PUA and the surface it is installed on will be 1.8" so if your Soundbar is 3.5" tall, it will cover 1.7" of the TV's screen...^IFV
